All versions of Outlook use the .pst file to store every item contained in
Outlook. See this page for complete backup information:

Hi All,
It's amazing how complicated simple things can be. I'd like to use my
address book from my laptop Outlook 2000 SR-1, WindowsXP on another computer
of the same, but repeated trying for over an hour Outllook only repeats that
the new pst file is not a personal folders file. Yet it IS the pst file
found in the expected location, copied to CD then to the new computer. I do
not find a *.pab file on my laptop.

Suggestions appreciated.

Gil
